[QUOTE="Roadkill Coyote, post: 1468123, member: 13568"] They're only money if you can get people to exchange them for something of value, which would be a neat trick, since they're giving them away to begin with. Not to mention the up front contradiction in their claims. According to the site, there will be no central authority, but there will be a controlled amount in circulation, secured by the P2P nature of the system. If you think P2P and secure belong in the same sentence, just go ahead and slap yourself awake. Inflation limited by expansion tied to cpu capacity? Is there anyone online these days that hasn't heard of Moore's Law? Seriously, the masterminds behind this idea have to be on crack or plan on using it as a delivery vector for a trojan or virus. I'm guessing crack. We ought to start a betting pool on how long the scheme lasts. [/QUOTE]
